reason i didn't get a "real" bag hanging from the ceiling is i wasn't allowed to drill holes into the ceiling lol. so i got this instead. JUNK!! well maybe not total junk, it'll do for now. i punch pretty ferociously and find i'm moving the whole unit, like 3 feet in one direction after 1min of punching. so after 1min i have to go to the opposite side to move the unit back to where it was before. it provides decent resistance, but you're moving the unit for that resistance. this would make a great training unit though, if you're just lightly tapping the bag with your fist, or also for kickboxing.

so not something i'd recommend...a real bag is much better if you're allowed to put holes into your ceiling in your house haha

Too bad you don't prefer this type of bag. I have several in my school and really enjoy them despite the movement. I have used traditional bags in the past and don't mind the movement at all. I guess I'm used to it. Have you tried to add more water to increase the weight?

      And the fact is, no two celiacs will necessarily respond the same to gluten exposure. Some are "silent" celiacs and don't experience obvious symptoms. But that doesn't mean no harm is being done to their gut. It just means it is subclinical.

      Thank you, Trents.  I appreciate your helpful and friendly reply. It seems more likely to be a bug.  It has been a pretty severe bought. I feel that I don’t have enough experience to know what signs my little one shows after exposure to gluten.

      Hannah24, be aware that if you are on a gluten free diet, you will invalidate any further testing for celiac disease (except genetics) and would need to go back to eating significant amounts of gluten for weeks or months to qualify for valid testing.

      Hello, @Hannah24 Have you had a DNA test done?  Celiac Disease is genetic.  You must have at least one gene to develop celiac disease.  You don't have to be consuming gluten for a genetic test.   Anemia, diabetes and thiamine deficiency can cause false negatives.  Some lucky people are seronegative, but still have celiac disease.  Peripheral neuropathy, tingling in hands and feet are symptoms of vitamin deficiencies.  Vitamin C, Thiamine B1, Niacin B3, Pyridoxine B6, and Cobalamine B12 can each cause peripheral neuropathy.  These same vitamins are needed to produce blood cells.  Most undiagnosed Celiacs suffer from nutritional deficiencies. The DNA test would be helpful.

      We do hear of cases of remission but they generally eventually revert back. I wouldn't push your luck.
